A Healthy City For All

Vancouver's Healthy City Strategy will be a long-term plan for healthier people, healthier places, and a healthier planet that takes into account economic, environmental and social impacts as a whole. The strategy has 12 goals and mid-term ten year targets to reach the vision of a city where together we are creating and continually improving the conditions that enable all of us to enjoy the highest level of health and well-being possible.

Last year we held a number of Talk Healthy City for All! 'idea labs' in communities accross Vancouver and held a youth specific workshop at Trout Lake Community Centre.Since then the Healthy City Strategy has been taken to City Council, approved, and we are now trying to figure out how to bring it to life. So stay tuned for new ways to get involved moving forward !
